This question posed by Jesus highlights the disciples' lack of trust in Him despite witnessing His miracles. It serves as a rebuke and a call to deeper faith. In the context of the storm on the Sea of Galilee, it underscores the necessity of faith in the face of fear. The question echoes the broader biblical theme of faith over fear, as seen in passages like <a href="/hebrews/11.htm">Hebrews 11:1</a>, which defines faith as confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.Frightened and amazed, they asked one another, The disciples' reaction of fear and amazement reflects their limited understanding of Jesus' divine nature. This dual response is common in biblical encounters with the divine, as seen in <a href="/isaiah/6-5.htm">Isaiah 6:5</a>, where Isaiah is both awed and fearful in God's presence. The disciples' fear contrasts with the peace Jesus embodies, illustrating the human struggle to comprehend divine power.“Who is this? This question reveals the disciples' growing realization of Jesus' true identity. It is a pivotal moment in the Gospels, as it prompts reflection on Jesus' nature as both fully human and fully divine. This question is central to the Gospel narrative, inviting readers to explore the identity of Christ, as seen in Peter's confession in <a href="/matthew/16-16.htm">Matthew 16:16</a>, where he declares Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of the living God.He commands even the winds and the water, This phrase emphasizes Jesus' authority over nature, a power attributed only to God in the Old Testament. Passages like <a href="/psalms/107-29.htm">Psalm 107:29</a>, which speaks of God calming the storm, and <a href="/job/38-8.htm">Job 38:8-11</a>, where God sets the boundaries of the sea, highlight this divine authority. Jesus' command over creation serves as a testament to His divinity and fulfillment of messianic prophecies, such as those found in <a href="/isaiah/9-6.htm">Isaiah 9:6-7</a>, which speak of the coming ruler with divine authority.and they obey Him!” The obedience of the winds and water to Jesus' command underscores His sovereign power. This obedience is a testament to His divine authority, aligning with the biblical theme of creation's submission to God's will, as seen in <a href="/genesis/1.htm">Genesis 1</a>, where God speaks creation into existence. It also prefigures the ultimate submission of all things to Christ, as described in <a href="/philippians/2-10.htm">Philippians 2:10-11</a>, where every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/j/jesus.htm">Jesus</a> The central figure in this passage, demonstrating His divine authority over nature. 2. <a href="/topical/t/the_disciples.htm">The Disciples</a> Followers of Jesus who are with Him in the boat, experiencing fear and amazement at His power. 3. <a href="/topical/t/the_sea_of_galilee.htm">The Sea of Galilee</a> The body of water where this event takes place, known for sudden and violent storms. 4. <a href="/topical/t/the_storm.htm">The Storm</a> A natural event that serves as the backdrop for Jesus' demonstration of His divine power. 5. <a href="/topical/t/the_boat.htm">The Boat</a> The vessel carrying Jesus and His disciples, symbolizing the church or individual believers in the midst of life's storms.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><a href="/topical/f/faith_in_the_midst_of_storms.htm">Faith in the Midst of Storms</a> Jesus' question, "Where is your faith?" challenges us to trust Him even when circumstances seem overwhelming. <a href="/topical/r/recognizing_jesus'_authority.htm">Recognizing Jesus' Authority</a> The disciples' amazement at Jesus' command over nature invites us to reflect on His divine authority in our lives. <a href="/topical/t/the_power_of_jesus'_word.htm">The Power of Jesus' Word</a> Just as Jesus calmed the storm with His word, His teachings and promises can bring peace to our troubled hearts. <a href="/topical/f/fear_vs._faith.htm">Fear vs. Faith</a> The disciples' fear contrasts with the faith Jesus calls them to have, reminding us to choose faith over fear. <a href="/topical/j/jesus'_presence_in_our_lives.htm">Jesus' Presence in Our Lives</a> The presence of Jesus in the boat symbolizes His constant presence with us, offering assurance and peace.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_luke_8.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Luke 8</a> <a href="/q/why_judge_without_full_story.htm">What did Jesus mean by 'More will be given'?</a> <a href="/q/how_can_faith_move_a_tree_into_the_sea.htm">How can a mustard-seed-sized faith literally uproot a mulberry tree and plant it in the sea (Luke 17:6) without defying known physical laws?</a> <a href="/q/why_do_disasters_affect_all_people.htm">Proverbs 10:25 says the righteous remain firm in the storm--why then do natural disasters often strike believers and nonbelievers alike?</a> <a href="/q/how_did_peter's_experiences_shape_him.htm">How did Peter's life experiences shape his character?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/luke/8.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(25) What manner of man.--Better, Who then is this?And water.--Better, and the water. <a href="/commentaries/luke/8-25.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>“Where is Ποῦ (Pou) Adverb <a href="/greek/strongs_4226.htm">Strong's 4226: </a> Genitive case of an interrogative pronoun pos otherwise obsolete; as adverb of place; at what locality. your ὑμῶν (hymōn) Personal / Possessive Pronoun - Genitive 2nd Person Plural <a href="/greek/strongs_4771.htm">Strong's 4771: </a> You.
